Current fuel consumption
Distance to empty tank
Tourist - alternative speedometer
Unit standards for distance, speed, etc. can bechanged via system settings in the center dis-play.
Trip odometerThere are two trip odometers: TM and TA. TM can be reset manually and TA is reset automatically if the vehicle is not used for fourhours. During a drive, the trip odometer registers data on:
Mileage
Driving time
Average speed
Average fuel consumption
The readings since the trip odometer's lastreset are displayed.
OdometerThe odometer records the vehicle's total mile-age. This reading cannot be reset.
Current fuel consumptionThis gauge shows the vehicle's fuel consump-tion at that moment. The reading is updatedabout once a second.
Distance to empty tankThe trip computer calculates the dis-tance that can be driven on the fuelremaining in the tank.
This calculation is based on average fuel con- sumption during the last 30 km (20 miles)and the amount of fuel remaining in the tank. When the gauge displays "----", there is not enough fuel remaining to calculate the remain-ing mileage. Refuel as soon as possible.
NOTE
The information will change based on your driving style.
An economical driving style will generally increase how far you can drive on a certainamount of fuel.
Tourist - alternative speedometerThe alternative digital speedometer makes iteasier to drive in countries where speed limitsigns are shown in a different measurementunit than the one shown in the vehicle'sgauges.

Displaying trip statistics in the center display Trip computer statistics can be displayed graphically in the center display, providing anoverview that facilitates more fuel-efficientdriving.
Open the Driver
performance app in the App
view to display trip statistics. Each bar in the graph repre- sents a driving distance of 1kilometers, 10 kilometers or
100 kilometers (or miles). The bars are addedfrom the right as you drive. The bar at the farright shows the data for the current trip. Average fuel consumption and total driving time are calculated from the most recent resetof the trip statistics.

STARTING AND DRIVING
* Option/accessory.405
Hill Start Assist
The function for assisting when starting the vehicle on inclines (HSA 4
) helps prevent the
vehicle from rolling backward when starting on an uphill gradient. When backing up a hill,HSA helps prevent the vehicle from rollingforward.
The function retains pressure from the brake pedal in the brake system for several secondsafter the brake pedal has been released. This temporary braking effect is released after a few seconds or when the driver begins driv-ing. Hill Start Assist is activated when the vehicle is stopped on steep inclines. The function isavailable even when the Auto-hold brake func-tion is switched off.

Braking assist after a collision
In a collision in which the activation level is reached for the pyrotechnic seat belt tension-ers or airbags, or if a collision with a large ani-mal is detected, the vehicle's brakes will beautomatically activated. This function isintended to help prevent or reduce the effectsof any subsequent collision.
After a serious collision, it may no longer be possible to control and steer the vehicle. Inorder to avoid or mitigate a possible furthercollision with a vehicle or an object in the vehi-cle's path, the brake assist system is activatedautomatically to help stop the vehicle safely. If braking is not appropriate, e.g. if there is a risk of being hit by passing traffic, the drivercan override the system by depressing theaccelerator pedal. This function assumes that the brake system is intact after a collision.

Regenerative braking
*
The vehicle recovers kinetic energy during braking in order to reduce fuel consumptionand emissions.
The battery symbol is shown in the instrument panel when the vehicle is generating power for the battery 5
.
The function is available in all drive modes together with gear selector position D or M.
Activating brake regeneration
Brake regeneration is activated by gentle pres- sure on the brake pedal or during engine brak-ing. Regeneration increases during engine braking if manual gear selector position M is selected.

Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode can help make driving more
fuel-efficient and eco-friendly.
Use this mode to save fuel and promote eco- friendly driving. When
Eco mode is activated, the following
characteristics are modified:
The automatic transmission's shifting points.
Engine control and accelerator pedalresponse.
Eco Coast functionality is activated andengine braking is disabled when the accel-erator pedal is released at speedsbetween 65 and 140 km/h(40 and 87 mph).
Some of the climate system settings willbe reduced or switched off.
Information will be shown in the ECOgauge in the instrument panel to help pro-mote more eco-friendly and economicaldriving.
Coast function Eco CoastEco Coast essentially deactivates engine brak-ing, allowing the vehicle's kinetic energy to beused to roll greater distances. When the driverreleases the accelerator pedal, the transmis-sion is automatically disengaged from theengine. Engine speed is reduced to idlingspeed to reduce fuel consumption. This function is most effective in driving situa-tions where the vehicle can roll freely for along distance e.g. on roads with slight down-grades or when a decrease in speed is antici-pated such as when approaching an area witha lower speed limit.
Activating Eco Coast
The function is activated when the accelerator pedal is fully released and the following condi-tions are met:
Eco drive mode is activated.
The gear selector is in
D.
The vehicle's speed is approximately 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph).
The gradient of the downgrade is less thanapproximately 6%.
COASTING will be displayed in the instrument
panel when Eco Coast is being used.
Limitations
Eco Coast is not available if
the engine and/or transmission are not at normal working temperatures
the gear selector is moved from
D to man-
ual shifting mode
the vehicle's speed is not within the65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) range
the gradient of the downgrade is morethan approximately 6%
the steering wheel paddles
* are being
used for manual shifting.
Deactivating and turning off Eco Coast
In certain situations, it may be advisable to deactivate or turn off Eco Coast so that enginebraking can be used. These situations mightinclude driving down steep hills or beforepassing another vehicle to help ensure thiscan be done as safely as possible. Deactivate Eco Coast by
pressing the accelerator or brake pedal
moving the gear selector to manual mode
using the steering wheel paddles
* to shift.
Turn off Eco Coast by
switching to another drive mode
*
deactivating
Eco drive mode in Function
view.
It is possible to roll short distances even with- out Eco Coast in order to help conserve fuel.However, for the best fuel economy, EcoCoast should be activated and used to rolllonger distances.
Cruise control Eco CruiseWhen cruise control is activated in the Ecodrive mode, the vehicle's acceleration and deceleration will be slower than in other drivemodes to help further conserve fuel. Becauseof this, the vehicle's actual speed may beslightly above or below the set speed.

STARTING AND DRIVING
* Option/accessory.423
Economical driving
A more economical driving style can help lower fuel consumption.
Before driving
If possible, precondition the vehicle before driving.
If preconditioning is not possible when itis cold outside, use seat and steeringwheel heating first. Avoid heating theentire passenger compartment to reducethe amount of current being taken fromthe start battery.
Avoid using idling to warm up the vehiclebefore driving.
The type of tires and inflation pressureused could affect energy consumption –consult an authorized Volvo retailer foradvice on suitable tires.
Remove unnecessary items from the vehi-cle - the heavier the load, the higher thefuel consumption.
While driving

Activate Eco drive mode.
Use gear selector position
D as often as
possible.
When using manual gear shifting, drive using the highest possible gear. Use the gear indicator 14
.
Maintain a steady speed and a generous following distance to traffic ahead to mini-mize braking. Use engine braking if possi-ble.
Higher speeds increase energy consump-tion because air resistance increases withspeed.
In a cold climate, reduce heating of thewindshield/rear window, mirrors, seatsand the steering wheel.
Avoid driving with the windows open.
Do not use the accelerator pedal to keepthe vehicle stationary on an uphill gradi-ent. Instead, activate the auto-hold brakefunction at a standstill.
Use trip data to see current fuel consump-tion.
WARNING
Never turn off the engine while the vehicle is moving, e.g. when driving downhill. Thisdeactivates certain important systemssuch as power steering and brakes.
After driving
If possible, park in a climate-controlled garage.
